Excellent thanks for the speedy reply Martin, another quick question for the rear disc conversion it says about using long wheel studs I have gv rims on mine would I need the longer studs. Is it like the Sj conversion where you can use the studs from the front hubs I have some of them spare if they are longer.

Baz,

Its hard to say. If you look at your current nuts/studs is there any spare thread sticking out the end? Mine were already longer studs as it says in the text and I had 3 or 4 mm of spare thread outside the end of the nut, since the conversion I have no spare thread. Is it the Muddyzook kit you are putting on?
